FUEL CELL TODAY

Event Summary:

The world is facing enormous energy challenges as the global oil & gas reserves will reach its peak within ten years. Tomorrow’s energy needs new technologies to meet consumers demand on cleaner and more efficient energy resources and a sustainable energy system. Now is the time to shift to renewable sources.

Hydrogen & fuel cells is a bridging technology in the renewable energy market covering the range from companies within the automotive and aerospace industries to the energy industry. The US Department of Energy has estimated that usage of fuel cell technologies could reduce carbon dioxide emissions about 15 million tonnes per year.

Today there is a cross-industry collaboration to put the transportation infrastructure in place and open up the full market potential for hydrogen & fuel cell technologies. The first movers will be the winners by delivering environmental friendly products for tomorrow’s consumers in a global marketplace.

This international one day conference will bring together world leading scientists from pioneering companies focusing on the development of emerging hydrogen & fuel cell technologies in the transportation sector. Our top level speaker panel will provide your company with a platform to innovate your research and development strategies within hydrogen & fuel cells and strengthen your organisation’s position in the future.

This conference will tackle key issues such as:

Launching a vision and strategy to develop fuel cell products for a mass market
Examining the current status and future trends within the Hydrogen & Fuel Cells marketplace
How to achieve synergy effects between different industries
Choosing most appropriate fuel cells system to provide your customers with environmental friendly technology
How to solve the storage problem to enable mass production within 10 to 15 years
Minimising costs and maximising reliability to commercialise hydrogen & fuel cells in the transportation sector
Designing fuel cells products to enhance cleaner energy and higher efficiency for mass consumers
Reducing costs by utilising new materials to increase power density
How to produce hydrogen to capture its full market potential
Moving from fossils to renewable energy resources to win new business opportunities
